Seveal tudie efomed in the at have hown that at low dive level ome quatz eonato may exhibit a lage inceae of thei eie eitance eventing the tating of ocillation. Thi wok eview the tudie and eult obtained fo nealy fifty yea on vey low dive level enitivity of quatz. The vaiou mechanim and model baed on the hyothei of moving aticle and uface defect in the eonato inducing eitance inceae and it elation with noie mechanim ae eviewed a well. Alo, the ae decibe eveal exeimental et-u, and meauement ocedue ued to obtain vey low dive level motional aamete. Thi wok i a contibution to undetand the oblem of tating quatz afte a long toage eiod. Some eliminay eult of the eie eitance meaued at vey low dive level ae alo eented. 1 Intoduction Fo about fifty yea, enginee and manufactue have been faced with the aticula behaviou of cetain ocillato that do not tat deite the fact that the eonato aamete meet the ecification at nomal dive level [3]. It wa found that the eaon why thi haen come fom a lage inceae of the eonato eie eitance at low dive level that cannot be comenated by the negative eitance of the feedback amlifie [1]. The numbe of name thi henomenon ha been given how that it i vey common: autho often efe to Stating Reitance [3], Had Stating Chaacteitic, Sleeing Sickne [4], Cuent Deendency of Cytal Reitance [1], Low Level Dive Senitivity [8], Second Level of Dive [15]. Although the name Dive Level Deendency [9] i widely ued in thi context, it i often ued to mean the aniochonim effect occuing at high dive level, to avoid miundetanding with thi non-linea henomenon that ha a quite diffeent oigin, it eem wie to ue a diffeent exeion uch a Dive Level Senitivity (DLS) [1] ued hee 1. Vey ealy, DLS ha been attibuted to uface defect coming fom micocoic ca of vaiou oigin often aociated with a ticky uface coating [3] o uface catche [8,1]. The inceae of the eonato eie eitance i one of the mot obviou effect of thee uface defect, but othe aaitic effect hould have the ame oigin uch a intemodulation in monolithic filte [8,14], ageing [4,6], fequency jum [1], o noie [,1,3]. On the othe hand, the exteme enitivity of the eonato chaacteitic to a tiny uface modification ha been tuned to account by uing it a a eno fo the chaacteization of bonding foce between a uface and gold aticle [9], tainle teel [31], o olytyene hee [16]. DLS behaviou and chaacteitic Many exeiment have been eoted duing eveal decade, ome of the mot demontative will be ummaized hee. Fo examle, a monotonic deceae of the eie eitance a the dive level inceae (Fig. 1) [1], ometime, eie eitance tat low, inceae u to a maximum then deceae (Fig. ) [1], mot of the time, the henomenon i not eveible, and exhibit an hyteei with unedictable thehold a hown in Fig. 3 [1]. Note that the eitance change i accomanied with a change of the eonance fequency eithe negative o oitive a in thi figue. Alo, aymmetical behaviou a hown in Fig. 4 ha been eoted [8]. 1 A moe igoou and unambiguou definition of the effect would equie to call it Low dive level DLD o DLD at low dive level. Hee the tem Dive Level Senitivity o DLS hould be conideed only a a hot cut.

A lage numbe of exeiment caied out fo decade have led to the following obevation: Inceae of the eie eitance i alway aociated with a oitive o negative fequency hift. The DLS ignatue tongly deend on the temeatue [1]. The DLS behaviou can be modified o ueed emanently o temoaily by ovediving the eonato [3,1], by olihing, etching o cleaning the cytal, thi latte oce being often conideed a the mot efficient [7,15]. The mot futating aect of thi henomenon i it lack of eoducibility, hence cytal eemingly identical may be dive enitive o not, and DLS of cytal aaently cued may eaea afte a long time of inactivity. 3 Oigin of the DLS A lot of wok and effot have been ut into undetanding the oigin of the henomenon, and vey ealy the attention ha been focued on the uface imefection a a oible caue of the DLS. Among the mot often eoted uface defect involved one can cite: Paticle of metal o quatz o abaive, Thin coat of ein o oil, Suface catche, Flaking of quatz uface o metal electode, Pooly adheive electode o blite, Suface te. Vaiou exeiment have oved the elationhi of caue and effect between the uface ollution and DLS. Fo examle, talc blown in the vicinity of an unealed quatz eonato may induce DLS [5]. Anothe inteeting and damatic demontation of the coelation between uface contamination and DLS ha been eoted a few yea ago [6]: mall quae in Figue 6 i a ecod of the elative eitance v. dive level of a 1 MHz 5 th ovetone AT-cut cytal that doen t exhibit a noticeable DLS. The ame eonato ha been oened and the uface ha been inkled with alumina aticle a hown in Fig. 5, afte the eonato ha been eealed, it eent an imotant DLS (mall cicle in Fig. 6). Once the eonato ha been eoened, cleaned and eealed, it aoximately ecoveed it oiginal tate (mall tiangle in Fig. 6). 6 Motional Reitance (Ohm) 5 4 3 1 6 4 Dive Level (dbm) Figue 4: Peak and hyteei of the eie eitance [8].

It hould be noted fit that a aticle by oneelf, that i without any bound with the uface, cannot induce the obeved henomena. On the othe hand, if the aticle wee tightly bound to the uface, it would act a a ma loading and hould induce a negative fequency hift which i often efuted by exeiment. So, obeved henomena can be exlained only if the aticle i bound to the uface by an elatic foce that can be due to a thin ticky coating of oil o ein, o any othe attactive foce uch a Van de Waal, electotatic, caillaity foce fo examle [31] (Fig. 7).

K u M k F = F e j ω t Figue 8: Simle mechanical model [9]. m x 4.1 Simle mechanical model A imle model of couled ocillato ha been ooed on the bai of a mechanical analogy eeented in Fig. 8 [9]. The lage ing ma ytem at left mimic the eonato motion, while the mall one at ight eeent the aticle motion. The hea motion of the uface act a an extenal diving foce F.

Even if linea daming tem wee intoduced in the eonato and aticle ing ma equivalent ytem, they would induce a linea equivalent daming tem indeendent of the dive level.

The etubation tem can be exeed a a function of the aticle eonant fequency, and the ma atio of the aticle to the ma of the actively vibating quatz egion [Equation (11)]. jωkq Y = j C mu F + ω (9) ω ω j m mu F ω ( ω + ω ) = α ω ω + jω m (1) = M m α ω = m k (11) Figue 15 how the elative eie eitance change of the eonato a a function of the aticle daming to ma atio fo two value of the aticle to eonato ma atio.

Beide of it influence on the ue hea mode equivalent admittance eviouly decibed, a localized iegulaity can alo be eonible fo eonant mode ditotion due to mall aaitic flexual motion that induce additional vibation enegy loe [11]. Futhemoe, the tong deendence of the aaitic effect with the aticula location of the iegulaity hould exlain the hyteei o othe ieoducible behaviou of the DLS a well a the high dive level cuing mechanim [1]. 5 Exeimental method and eult Fom the exeimental oint of view, eveal method can be ued to meaue DLS. In the ealiet exeiment, the cytal imedance mete wa the mot common method ued [3]. Then, an eaie way wa to ue an ocillato with vaiable gain a chematically deicted in Fig. 16. At low gain, the negative eitance of the amlifie cannot comenate fo the eonato lo o that the ocillato doen t tat. By ogeively inceaing the amlifie gain u to each the ocillation level it i oible to know if the cytal i dive level enitive o not. Nevethele, thi fat and inexenive method doen t give deendency with dive level and i mainly ued fo ceening of cytal to ecified accetance limit. [17,9]. R q Figue 18: Cytal equivalent cicuit. The aamete of the eonato equivalent cicuit (Fig. 18) can be calculated fom the amlitude and hae tanfe function of the meauement netwok the cytal i ineted in [8]. Fo high fequency eonato, thoe aamete can be obtained fom the catteing aamete meauement by uing automatic netwok analye [1,3,4,5]. With the develoment of mat intumentation and comute aided meauement technique it i now vey convenient to ue netwok/imedance analye that enable the ue to vay eveal aamete uch a the inut ignal magnitude and to calculate the equivalent cicuit aamete fom the imedance magnitude and hae ecod [18,19]. In the eent cae, the exeiment have been efomed by uing an Agilent 4395A Netwok/Sectum/Imedance Analye and the 43961A Imedance Kit [,33]. To imove the accuacy of the meauement, the eonato unde tet ha to be iolated fom the envionmental etubation mainly due to temeatue fluctuation. To thi end, the imedance tet kit ha been comlemented with a eciion oven keeing the cytal at it tunove oint (Fig. 19, ).
